Book Description
This report represents nearly 6 years of collaboration among Federal Highway Administration (FHWA), State, and American Concrete Pavement Association (ACPA) engineers on the subject of Fastrack Concrete Paving. As an outgrowth of activities begun in 1986 in Storm Lake, Iowa, a Technical Working Group (TWG) assembled under the auspices of the FHWA's Special Project 201. Since the first meeting in Alexandria, Virginia, in 1988, the TWG has cooperated to construct pilot projects, test concrete material with the FHWA's mobile laboratory, sponsor workshops and conferences nationwide, simulate exercises on urban project designs, complete ACPA's Technical Bulletin on Fastrack, and support follow-on research. This report formally completes activities carried out under SP-201. It presents key information on opening-to-traffic criteria and pavement slab temperature management. It includes a summary of key projects built around the country in the last 6 years. It also includes a copy of ACPA's new bulletin and closes with reprints of several technical reports that may be of interest to the reader.

Book Description
Fast track paving is many things to many people - and rightly so. After ten years, the evolution of fast track has taken a revolutionary idea, conceived in a meeting in Iowa in the fall of 1985, and has changed forever how people think with regard to portland cement concrete pavement. Fast track has broken down the time barrier that entrapped concrete pavement construction for decades. Instead of being rejected as the pavement type of choice because of time restrictions, it now, in many cases, can offer advantages of time when compared to the other paving material.

Book Description
"This report documents a review of Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) design and construction practices with regard to accelerated concrete pavement construction of heavily travelled intersections. Special measures taken by TxDOT at the design and construction level to address the needs presented by overcoming the impact of reconstruction of such pavement facilities were the focus of this review"--Technical report documentation p.
Development of Fast-track Concrete-- 2

Book Description
The project described herein pertains to the development of very high early strength concrete, herein referred to as fast track concrete, for rapid repair of highway pavements. This project is a sequel to an earlier study. The objective of the former project was to develop the base mix design for the fast track concrete, establish in-place field monitoring procedures, and demonstrate the fast track technology in actual field applications. The scope of the earlier project was limited to a single cement brand and type. The objective of the study presented here was to explore the capability of Portland cement types I and III in achieving fast track properties. In doing so the project involved development of fast track concrete with a number of different cement brands currently used in New Jersey. The concrete developed in this project will be employed in full-depth repair of jointed concrete pavement slabs.

Book Description
This research focuses on modeling early-age behavior of both concrete pavements and bonded concrete overlays (BCO) subjected to stresses from moisture and thermal changes. It includes the development of a two-part, versatile, comprehensive set of guidelines that provide direction in the proper selection of design and construction variables to minimize early-age damage to the portland cement concrete pavement (PCCP) and BCO.
Construction of a Thin-bonded Portland Cement Concrete Overlay Using Accelerated Paving Techniques

Book Description
The report describes the Virginia Department of Transportations' first modern experience with the construction of thin-bonded Portland cement concrete overlays of existing concrete pavements and with the fast track mode of rigid paving. The study was conducted in cooperation with the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA) and used a paving mixture verified in an FHWA mobile laboratory. The study showed that the fast track mode will permit lane closure times as short as 48 hours. Of special interest was the finding that adequate strength of the bond between the old pavement and the overlay is not dependent on the use of a bonding grout.

Book Description
The Concrete Pavement (CP) Road Map is a comprehensive and strategic plan for concrete pavement research that will guide the investment of research dollars for the next several years. It will result in technologies and systems that help the concrete pavement community meet the paving needs of today, and the as-yet unimagined paving challenges of tomorrow. In short, the CP Road Map will result in a new generation of concrete pavements for the 21st century.
